Looking for more wholistic answers to dealing with ITP
Hi, I am newly diagnosed since Aug. 2022 with ITP and have had two crashes with platelet levels in the single digits twice now. Last week they put me on a short dose of dexamethasone which helped and now I am getting Nplate injections weekly for a month. From everything I have read, I cannot find

Lymphatic Drainage by Vibration Platforms
The attached article reports apoptosis of cancer cells by low frequency vibration (not CLL & experiment was in-vitro) Vibration platforms claim multiple fold increase in lymphatic circulation and drainage. Lymphatic drainage is good for CLL. Can there be a small chance that vibration platforms

EXTREME bone pain with Neupogen injections, advise welcome!
Has anyone experienced extreme pain with Neupogen GCSF injections? My husband has received 2 out of 4 injections and is in agonizing bone pain. His specialist recommended a hot bath, Claritin, and Tylenol. I also have a heating pad on his back. Just wondering how long this will last and how he is going

ALC is still going up
Well, today I had another CBC. My ALC continues to go up consistently at each 2 week check and I will be seeing my onco at the beginning of Feb. In addition to the rising alc, test shows a few other little changes that i don't fully understand -- my MCV is now reading high (99.50) and my MCHC is low

parietal cell antibody lab results
I’m having trouble interpreting my lab results. My Parietal Cell Antibody IgG value is 33.2 units and it said the standard range is 0.0-24.9 units. So it’s above the standard range but not by much. Apparently above 25 units is positive so that means I’m positive? I just want to confirm.

Travel insurance within the UK.
I'm travelling from Essex to Belfast next month and am looking for travel insurance. With belfast being in the UK I wonder if I actually need cover anyway. I am over 200 days post stem cell transplant and it will be my first time travelling abroad as such since the start of covid in 2020. I am considering

Some good Clonoseq results
I just wanted to share that I received some positive news from Clonoseq blood test. This is a blood test for MRD. It did not detect any CLL. So, my doctor has scheduled a bone marrow biopsy to do further testing. If that too comes back negative, I will be able to go off treatment. I started my

After 2 years in remission post B+R my white count is starting to go up. In Aug. it was 7.925, Dec 8 was 11.78, and last week was 15.05. I have to go for another CBC next week. I am also noticing periods of feeling a little out of breath with little exertion. I'm scared that this might be heading

CLL Staging
Hello. My husband, Simon, was diagnosed with CLL several years ago and has been closely monitored. On his last visit to his consultant he was told that he needs to start treatment. Either Rituximab or Venetoclax. My husband is always dismissive of his condition and does not want to discuss with me

A tip for Australians with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia trying to access pneumococcal vaccination through the National Immunisation Program
What a morning I've had to get my third pneumococcal vaccine.
